Hello all,
I am interested in building a light British AA-cruiser of the Black Prince-/ Bellona-/ modified Dido-class (whatever YOU want to call them). I prefer Black Prince.
The only kit I could find by now is the metal kit from Skytrex in 1/700. Anybody ever build one of these?
Also in 1/700 there are Dido from White Ensign, and Scylla from WSW, both might be basis for a conversion. Iron Shipwright used to make Sirius in 1/350, but that kit seems to be out of production (and stock). Has anybody further knowledge of available kits?
If I will go for the converssion: where can I find good plans? I was told there are good drawings in the Raven/Roberts book "British Cruisers of WW2" - does anybody know if "Ensign 2 - Dido Class Cruisers" by Raven/Lenton also covers the modified Didos?
Thanks in advance for help!
